heey fellow collegues’,

erm, I was looking at one of the tutorials for flash to help me get an effect which i wanted for a flash movie which im making. The tutorial is rlly good but the effect that i wanted is a little different.

```
 tutorial: http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/calculating_distance2.htm
 the lovely effect: http://danlod.com/enindex.php
 (note: the subject is the little flash movie which shows/lists the options for different languages)

```

The tutorial states how to calculate the distance and all that, but i want the objects to get bigger when the pointer gets closer to them instead of changing transparency but as u can see im a true novice with my actionscript skills… can anyone plz give me/show me an example or make a quick 1 line script for me ?
